Funeral plans have been set for the two children found dead in East Haven.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. (AP) - Funeral plans are set for the two children who were found dead in their Connecticut home earlier this month. The mother of the children has been charged with murder.

Services will be held Tuesday at a New Haven church for 7-year-old Daaron Moore and 6-year-old Aleisha Moore. Their bodies were found in an East Haven home on June 2.

Police said LeRoya Moore was arrested when she was discharged from a hospital after treatment for arm injuries that appeared to be self-inflicted on the day the bodies were found. The house was filled with natural gas and police said it appeared the children had been dead for more than 24 hours.

According to court documents, the mother allegedly left a note saying she was sending the children to heaven.
